We were very much looking forward to enroll our kid for writing help at Sylvan in Herndon. However…read morethe center staff didn't communicate regarding their absolutely little availability and no flexibility when it came to schedule classes for my kid. This was after we paid the hefty assessment fee which is now a waste of our money and time and we couldn't pursue the classes due to very limited availability. I can only imagine how it would be to schedule any make up classes. Do not recommend this center - unless you discuss the availability before scheduling the paid assessment.

Wow. I can't say enough good things about how pleasant the staff and teachers are here. Our child…read morewas struggling at the start of the school year after a rough school year last year. I can proudly say the staff and focuses learning provided at Sylvan have helped advance your child up two grade levels in just a few months. I couldn't recommend this Sylvan location more.

We used Art to tutor two of our children for both the SAT and ACT. Our kids always liked working…read morewith him as he was able to find the parts of the test where they needed help and concentrate on that. Art also taught them test taking skills that were very helpful and useful beyond the SAT. We felt his rates were very reasonable and he was always on time. We felt it was so worth it as our children's test scores improved greatly!

Here is another 5 star review. At the risk of being redundant, Art Edwards worked with our son to…read moreimprove his math SAT score through a combination of material mastery and test-taking strategies. Our son did his part, doing practice exams and going over them when they met. We had what we thought was a realistic expectation of how much the score might improve and were pleasantly surprised when he scored higher than we'd hoped and expected. Art is able to explain the material as well as how test questions are designed in ways that our son understood and was able to apply. Both not only helped this score, but certainly will contribute in the future. Highly recommended.

We have worked with Julia Ross and her team on two occasions and have been very pleased both times…read more She - and her team - take a personal approach with each student. They weigh feedback and information from parents, and with her in-depth knowledge of colleges and universities, provide customized guidance to each student/family. The whole process of applying to college has changed so much over the last two decades (when I first applied). It has further changed in the last several months during this pandemic. If you want to have the best understanding of the process and be provided with insightful, educated suggestions and recommendations you should have your son or daughter work with Julia and her team. They will help you match your child to the right school (or group of schools) - some of which you may have not even considered. Oh, and also of importance, she can help guide you through potential opportunities to save thousands on tuition - more than off-setting the costs of her services.

Parents beware! I'm…read moreposting this message to share my experience with Professional Tutoring, LLC and to warn parents to be careful about providing your credit card information to this company. No matter how nice or persuasive the owner of the business is (and believe me she is very persuasive), do not provide your credit card information. Once you do, they will charge your credit card even if you tell them to stop charging. This is exactly what happened to me. I'm sorry that I have to post this negative report. I am not one to do this type of thing, but in this case, I believe I was really treated badly and unfairly. I normally assume positive intent when I deal with people or with businesses, that's what I did this time too. But unfortunately, my assumption was wrong about Professional Tutoring LLC. Although, I have reached out to the owner multiple times and nicely requested for them not charge my credit card and for them to refund the amount they have already charged, they always refer to a contract and refuse to discuss. All the niceness and the care they exhibited to get us to sign-up disappeared fast! They have now charged me $900+ for services not rendered! So, parents beware! Sossena

Her tutor was patient, organized, and did a great job explaining things in a way that made sense. They took the time to figure out what she was already doing well and where she needed more practice, then came up with a plan that really worked for her. Scheduling was easy, communication was always clear, and the whole process was stress-free. Best of all, she ended up with a great SAT score! I would definitely recommend Magellan Tutoring to anyone looking for SAT prep.
